god I’m so proud of Fai
To have Seishirou (who’s killed him once before) grab him by the throat and still just be like “um lol”. His smile is a work of art. It’s powerful.
And then, glorious.
A rare sight, so hard to see.
Seishirou; surprised.
FAI DID THAT.
FAI JUST, BOUNCED.
ANd this is BEAUTIFUL all on his own. I am starry eyed, watching with pride, as magic-less Fai just straight up attacks Seishirou with his bare hands and drives him back all on his own.
And also? There is a slash? On Seishirou’s clothes?
HE GOT HIM.
FAI DID THAT.
[9]
PLEASE REPEAT EVERYTHING I JUST SAID ABOUT FAI HAVING GROWN AND DEVELOPED INTO A MORE WHOLE PERSON WHO CAN LOVE AND RESPECT THE VALUE OF HIS OWN LIFE
THIS PAGE IS THE TRUEST ART I EVER WISHED TO SEE
THIS IS FAI’S BEST AND FINAL FORM
SMILING OUT OF LOVE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT HE WON’T THROW HIS LIFE AWAY ANYMORE – AND – AND – NOT HAVING TO BE TOLD THIS? THIS IS SOMETHING HE’S LEARNED. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HE KNOWS HIMSELF, ON THE INSIDE, AND CAN ACT ACCORDINGLY.
FAI ISN’T THROWING HIMSELF TO HEAL KUROGANE, FAI IS MAKING A CAREFUL AND EDUCATED CHOICE THAT HE KNOWS HE CAN SAFELY AFFORD AND CONTINUE TO LIVE WITH BY RELYING ON HIS LOVED ONES. AND THAT FRAME WITH ONE OF THEM ON EACH SIDE OF THE FRAME? THEY’RE FINALLY ON THE SAME LEVEL. FAI HAS BECOME WHAT KUROGANE ALWAYS KNEW HE WAS CAPABLE OF: HE HAS SELF LOVE AND VALUE, AND NOW THEY TRULY ARE THE COUNTERPARTS THAT THEY ALWAYS WERE MEANT TO BE. THEY ARE THE MATCHING WHITE AND BLACK OF A PAIR THAT IS FINALLY TOGETHER.
LOOK AT THIS MAN
LOOK AT THIS FAMILY
LOOK AT ALL THE LOVE BEHIND THESE FACES
THIS IS EVERYTHING FAI DESERVES AND MORE

EXCUSE ME THIS IS BEAUTIFUL AND IM CRYING
Kurogane paid his arm to keep Fai alive
And Fai paid his magic to replace Kurogane’s missing limb
I’ve done a complete 180 on this entire exchange – both because it wasn’t Free and that the cost was something significant.
There is so much in this gesture I don’t think I could summarise the full weight behind it even if I typed all day.
Fai’s magic was the THING of his past. It’s what stood at the centre of every single thing that happened in his backstory – and it was also his single greatest strength that he could rely on. It was won from suffering and pain and tragedy and, now, it has achieved the two greatest things it ever could; saving the lives of his family from a trap that should have killed them all, and restoring the missing body part of a man who loves him so fiercely he would sacrifice bits of himself to save Fai in return.
Fai’s magic has served every purpose it’s ever going to. Fai is more whole and happy without it than he EVER was with it in the past. Not only is he loved, but he’s not living a lie, or intending to die, or suffering under the weight of his ever looming backstory. Fai was always intending to trade his life away for that of his twin’s, but that’s over now, so the backstory has no chains to keep Fai trapped in sorrow or regret any longer. Fai is a free man, and he doesn’t need his magic as a constant reminder of everything he’s gone through. He’s trading it for something better.
ALSO I am WILD about the fact that with this trade Fai is doing the one thing he could never do with the magic. No matter how hard he tried his magic was only for destruction, not for healing. But now he’s traded it all away to Heal Kurogane of his biggest wound and thus MAKING his magic result in the healing he always wanted it to. Fai MADE his magic become worthy of healing, even though his backstory demanded that it would never amount to that.
Fai is moving forward and taking strides towards a happier and healthy future and he’s doing it in STYLE.
[13 cont.]
OKAY SOME THINGS:
-Fai walks in wearing a visual declaration that they’re in an established relationship and PUNCHES KUROGANE IN THE FACE
-WHICH, LIKE. KUROGANE.
-So that’s basically leading with the strongest flirtation possible y/y?
-and like, this is the face of a man who is far more in love than even he realised:
-And it adds SO MUCH from Fai’s angle, because he’s THOUGHT about this
-He’s had ??? days to recover from this and think it through and REALLY approach this conversation from the way he wants to
-And what he does is THAT
-And he SMILES
-GENUINELY
-WHICH IS RARE ENOUGH IN ITSELF, BUT NOW? AFTER ALL THAT?
-MIRACULOUS
-Fai has had the time to contemplate everything that has happened, to reflect on his past being broadcast to everyone while also having it used against him as a weapon. He’s felt his grief and lost both his brother and his father figure and had the chance to feel the fact that his family still loves him so fiercely that they fought for him right till the end and
-and Kurogane did the arm thing.
-So Fai SMILES, GENUINELY, and uses Kurogane’s nickname again - which we haven’t heard since Acid Tokyo, when Kurogane forced him not to die
-So Fai is deliberately joining that circle back together, realising that he is no longer mad at being forced to be alive or having to live through Evil Wolverine’s plan or any of the reasons of before because it’s all over now. All of it. Fai’s entire past is over and wrapped up and he can be ANYTHING he wants, now.
And this is what he picks. He is Fai, Kurogane’s lover, Fai who can smile without lying about it, Fai who can use playful nicknames, and Fai who can meet Kurogane on an equal footing and treat him like they’re an even match.
This is what Fai has decided that his life is going to be, and Kurogane loves him fiercely for it.
